Muyanga went ahead to explain the basis of Mirundi’s aggressive reaction saying, “Someone spoilt my day by telling Mirundi that I worked with CBS for ten years. That is why he said I ‘ate’ Mengo money.”

The moderator stated that he did not thump him in any way that’s why he kept calm because he understands its normal to get emotional.

“For the record, I wasn’t beaten or threaten. What happened was an emotional collapse and that is normal. I think my guest was angry that he was part of the ‘kyapa mu ngalo’ which he had discredited,” he stated

Uganda Communication Commission yesterday issued a notice of suspension to NBS TV over Tamale Mirundi’s conduct during the Tuesday program.
